  • In this video, I am riding from Foumban, to Melong, in Cameroon. Around Melong, I visit the gorgeous Ekom falls, and ride up to Man And Woman lake, on top of a volcano. But the rain keeps on making the journey very hard, and this day is no exception...

      @@joedonner9476so the thing is when you’re born there, you don’t really have much to compare against cuz it’s your “new normal” you don’t really get to think you’re poor cuz those around you live in very similar circumstances so that’s the life you know. We cultivate our own food so we rarely go hungry and that to us is wealth. Only when you step out of the rural areas and go into the cities and interact with others that you kinda feel poor but we’re always contented cuz we know some people don’t even have food to eat but we do and it makes you want to work hard to do better for your family

      ​@@kizitobewah2166Wow such touching words. But I guess you're one of the richest people on Earth - because you're so open minded, so helpful and as I looked like on the people (not sure about the rural area) you guys are still happy and still smiling and having fun. Even if you don't live on the highest living standard, but you're still helping out each other and even foreigners. I think this is what is totally missing from the 'western' world...but you can compare it now as you're living in the States now - so what do you think?

      Africans born and raised in rural areas are trained to help and support each other. That’s why when we grow up and get an opportunity to travel to the western world for greener pastures, they try to manipulate our belief in humanity to pay or us low pay checks and when we retaliate because we are educated, they consider us stubborn, oh my sweet home Africa 🤦🏽

    Hi Noraly thanks for making me see my village Bangem on TH-cam, it would have been great if you went to the lake with a villager who would have explained more about the lakes, The Twin Lakes of Muanenguba are a pair of crater lakes on Mount Muanenguba located in Bangem, Kupe Muanenguba subdivision in the South West Region of Cameroon is a twin lake which is a male and female lake, lake Muanenguba is very popular, I think the title of this video would have been something like "Female and Male Twin Lakes of Muanenguba, Cameroon"

  • @danielngongang9419

    One interesting thing about this video is that Noraly crossed from the French speaking part of Cameroon into the English-speaking part. Which is why at the beginning she speaks with locals in French, then speaks with locals in English around the time she goes to visit the twin lakes.

      It's funny most of the time. The richer the people are the less inclined to help others. These people who have next to nothing. Are all ways there if they can help out. And money isn't the motive. Yes it's appreciated. But that's not the reason. It's love for people and to help each other. It's sad to say a lot of us have forgotten how to live. We have moved on to the me, me, attitude and stuff any body else! And Itchy boots has shown us there is still nice people around! Respect is the word for this! Love all your photos and what a life! We are all the way with you.every steep! Every hill, every water crossing. I have never seen another program like this or even close to it. What A adventure.

    Two books by naturalist and author Gerald Durrell, published long, long ago in the 1950's, tell of his collecting trip to what was then British Cameroon. Those books are the single reason why today I am a biologist, with many, many years of work and research in Africa. In those days, far behind me now, I was also a motorcyclist, criss-crossing mainly East, North East and Southern Africa on an old Yamaha XT500 and later an early BMW R80GS. Thanks, Noraly, for sharing your remarkable rides and bringing back such wonderful memories.
